Abstract

Solder bumps are created on a substrate of an electronic assembly having lengths that are longer than the widths. The solder bumps are created by locating solder balls of power or ground connections close to one another so that, upon reflow, the solder balls combine. Signal solder balls however remain separated. Capacitors are created by locating power solder bumps adjacent ground solder bumps and extending parallel to one another.
